BATON ROUGE — The LSU Tigers remained a top 3 team in the AP Top 25 Poll following an SEC-opener win over the Florida Gators.

The Tigers stayed put as the No. 3 team in the country after a 3-0 start to the year, capped off by Saturday's 20-10 victory over the Gators. LSU's defense and special teams were crucial to winning its first game of conference play as the offense continued to struggle for the third straight week. 

A few of LSU's future opponents made major moves, for better or worse, in the AP Poll after Saturday.

South Carolina, which LSU plays on Oct. 11 in Baton Rouge, suffered a 31-7 loss to Vanderbilt. The previously No. 11 Gamecocks fell completely out of the Top 25, and quarterback LaNorris Sellers could miss some time after suffering a concussion, according to On3. The Commodores entered the Top 25 at No. 20 after their big win. LSU travels to Nashville on Oct. 18.

Texas A&M also earned a big jump in the rankings after an electric, last-second win over Notre Dame. The Aggies took down the Irish on a game-tying touchdown with 13 seconds left in the game after the Irish muffed an extra point. A&M kicked the PAT to win 41-40 in South Bend and subsequently rose from No. 16 to No. 10. The Aggies head to Baton Rouge on Oct. 25.

LSU's next game is against Southeastern Louisiana at 6:45 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 20. Fans can watch the game on SEC Network.
